I don't really think those two things are mutually exclusive. While I certainly don't fear getting fired for "speaking out of turn", I also don't really speak out of turn. If I know what I'm talking about and believe I can add value to the discussion, I'll respectfully and professionally say what's on my mind regardless of the rank of the person I'm talking to.

Not at all controversial and exactly how things should be done. Either "above" or "below" respect is earned not demanded. In the hospital case it can not function properly without the head of surgery or the guy that dumps the trash cans.
Again you nailed it. If you are responded to a dipshit in a dipshit manner than you are no better than they are and dipshittery rules.
